Welcome to SLC ! The weather looks way unseasonably warm for the next 2 weeks so delightful but kinda creepy. COVID levels are very low currently so that's good.
Measels continues to spread however. avrpublic.dhhs.utah.gov/uwss/

I gotta say Utah, so far is doing nicely as far as COVID 19 infections except Park City and surrounds.

A map of Utah showing Waste water plants along population centers color coded for the amount of COVID -19 found in the waste water. most of the state shows blue for 'very low' or light blue for 'low' except for 2 plants around Park City in Summit County where it is orange for elevated & red for very elevated.

I almost replied to an email from my GOP congress person discussing the shut down but thought better of it for fear of future retaliation. I will respond more generally i guess.

We had an accidental pet grasshopper 2 years ago. She had lost her big legs and so only had 4. She was surprisingly as sentient as a pet bird. She lived in a terrarium thingy in our home from August to January.
